Three Orphans Doing Well

Even before their mother died of AIDS, WorldHope Corps was supporting the three young children: Rose, Ruth and Happy. I was pleased to receive this update today:

Rev Michael,

I am glad to report that I have been to see Esnat's children- Rose, Ruth and Happy. They are still good but seemingly it is not as easy for the old grandma to provide the best motherly care in terms of bathing the children. But there is some evidence of care.

Happy was unwell last week and that is what hindered me to send pictures then. Looking back at the condition in which Bob last found this boy, there is improvement and hope that Happy will grow on.

I have bought groundnuts, milk soap and lotion for them every month since Bob assigned me to do the job. Corn is always supplied. I will send a full account to you soon.
